Guys, I forgot what's the taobao search term for buckling spring. Any non-banana can help with this?

Buckling spring as in IBM buckling spring keyboards, not the damn springs for MX Cherry...

Okay..thanks for the info...    
But I still think Blues is nice   Haha

Yea, i just watched a video of someone reviewing the keyboard. First time i found out that there's variable weight in a keyboard. More keyboard science to learn.

Still, I don't really understand why he chose to use a keyboard with variable weights for gaming. Consistency is one of the highest requirement imo,for gaming.

Btw guys, I noticed that when I type on the keyboard. Sometimes there will be duplicated characters coming out. It happens randomly and occasionally. I'm not sure whether it's because of faulty switches or because of my own way of typing which causes it to double press without me knowing.

Anyway,it is not restricted to a certain key. When it happens, I will try to check that particular key and tried pressing on it a few times to see whether it happens again but sadly I wasn't able to reproduce the double character output no matter how slow/fast I click or tap or double tap( double tap will have 2 characters, no additional characters ). So I kinda feel like it's not a problem with the switches.

if it's just to clear the switch inside, you don't really have to take the switch out.
one of the way you can try is to remove the keycaps of that affected switch, press down the switch until you see enough opening for you to spray some high pressured air inside or something similar.

if this doesn't work, then only resort to changing the switch.

yea, some mentioned about cleaning the switch will solve it. I'm using a Ducky g2pro. I think this thing has been sitting on the shelf for quite some time. >.<

Guess I'll just live with it if it's not too consistent. Don't really have time to solder, take out the switch, clean it and put it back. 

But I thought opening the housing of the switches requires desoldering the switch first?

Hmm,  .
Guess I would have to try that out for myself. I don't know how does a metal plate resonance sound sounds like. 

Or maybe there is a difference between acrylic plate and metal plate. Anyway, I don't even know whether my current keyboard uses a metal plate or a plastic plate. 

yea, I think it is up to individual in the end. Everyone have their preference.
I just searched a few threads on GH and those who like PCB mount generally prefers the not so solid or natural feel. They can't really explain it but after testing the same switches on a poker 2 and a filco. The ones who like pcb mount can't go back to filco, so they say. The flex makes it a very nice experience for them. But I worry about the solder joints though. As solder joints generally don't like flex.

Guess I'll most probably be saving up funds and get the parts without the plate first. If I happen to not like the pcb moutn feel and decide to have the plate for stability later on, I will just have to resolder the switches and buy the plate.

My Rapid-i experience :

Bought in mid December
Early January, 1 dead LED
By end of January 3, dead LED + sent to RMA.
Mid March, finally got the replacement
Almost end of April, 2 dead LED.

Still waiting CM rep to reply my PM...

The replacement is a different unit though. Different serial number. It's not just repaired unit.

But according to the serial number, both unit manufactured on the same week : 1425 = year 2014 week 25th

What facilities/equipment do you have? A cnc milling machine?
I have built the lyn keyboard and have a cnc aluminum keyboard in production
zennasyndroxx is an expert is designing custom keyboard
he will help if he is paid with the right amount of consultation fees 

No leh. Laser cut acrylic plate Not sure how I'm going to do the case also! Thinking of the round edges like tables. Got so much to read about wood work!
what custom LYN MKB?

CM Storm QFR-i.

But not recommended for typist get LED keyboard because you will never use it. Get a table lamp instead.
Just my own opinion. 

If add a set of thick ABS/PBT then really end game hahaha..

LED will die after sometime. My CM Storm QFR-i still ok. 
Never know CM Storm is the king. 
K70 always the king in my heart. 
If you wish for dedicated arrow keys, then go for Filco.
You need press FN+ certain keys to get arrow keys in HHKB. You may go for Realforce 23U for the dedicated arrow keys.
Well, for those use VIM, they don't use cursor.
Else, just get used to the HHKB layout...

As I am a DIY guy, the assembly and soldering work absolutely not a problem for me.

The only I thing that I concern about is getting the right part and the right design I want to have.  For instance, which switches and key caps that I should get.

By the way, anyone with me : https://www.massdrop.com/buy/holyoops-alumi...mode=guest_open

beli xiaomi keyboard, and then replace with gateron switch if it's not gateron

EDIT: but let's first hope that it's standard layout 

How awesome can an RMB199 keyboard be? Anyone planning on ordering it?
